Parenthood has it’s ups and downs. Changing diapers? Down. Giggles and smiles? Up! Waking up all night? Definite downer. 1st birthday parties? Up, of course!
But what to do for a theme?! Birthday parties are such fun memorable makers for family, but – to be completely honest – the child usually doesn’t really mind what the theme is. There’s cake? He’s in!
To make the brainstorming session a bit easier for you, we’ve rounded up some super fun 1st birthday party ideas for boys!
Teddy Bear Picnic! I am so in love with this 1st birthday party idea. It was originally thrown for a little lady, but is easily (and fabulously) gender neutral.
The Very Hungry Caterpillar! Don’t you just love this book? It’s such a classic, and I can’t think of a one year old who wouldn’t love this 1st birthday party idea!
The concept behind this party is totally genius. Mr. ONE-derful…get it?! Heavens me, this 1st birthday party idea is awesome!
How cute is this party? It was originally thrown for a 4 year old, but what 1 year old boy doesn’t love dirt and digging? I’m thinking this is a perfect 1st birthday party idea for a summer afternoon!
Those big red ballons? Swoon worthy. I totally am loving this darling elephant party – perfect for a little guy turning one!
A Mustache Bash! Perfect, right? I’m loving this darling party idea for a 1st birthday – the modern touches and DIY backdrops are both simple and modern!

This vintage baseball party is totally darling! I love the bright, patriotic colors – perfect for a summer shin-dig!
